 Thank you all for the nice comments and great votes. Yes, this is the Glamaig and the Sligachan Bridge on the Isle of Skye. The image was taken last month, when we experienced some days with real snow (not very common though, I think this was the first time in 4-5 year that we had these beautiful circumstances), so it was just right for this challenge.

Outstanding landscape photography and an outstanding location you live in. Surprised you say that snow is not common as I thought that Scotland got loads of snow every year. Congrats!

So beautifully untouched. The bridge and stream add a lot to the image.

Very nice photograph overall. I like the composition, and the exposure is excellent. Your focus is excellent throughout, exciting scene I must say.
